    Someone should make an ant farm case mod. With two seperate colonies which you can link up to have WAR.

    forget having a window in your case, put a double layer of plasic in and have an ant farm, it wont be long before overclockers are selling kits

    Wow, I think I know why my ants have been so lame, looks like if you keep them in the dark they tend to just sit there doing nothing, I just moved them to the window and they are all over the place I bet they react to light or something.

    Anyway will move them back in front of the webcam in a bit. Thanks for all your visits yesterday actually, over 250 people had a look at the camera

    Just ordered my second batch of ants, when I get them in about 5 days hopefully these ants would have created a good tunnel network so I can expand the hive

    Just hoping they dont start eating each other

    UPDATE: As I mentioned earlier I was after a queen, this was the reply I got today:

    Dear Ian, We would suggest using Black Ants Lasius niger or Red Ants Mymica
    rubra (these do bite) We cannot definately supply a colony with a queen but
    if you mention it on your order then we will do our best.Named species ants
    are £8-42 per 100 plus p&p and Vat. Best wishes Philip

    Guess you just have to ask nicely

    Sweet thread - I want some ants
    Can you take some more photos of the ants? - they are much clearer than the webcam.

    Thanks

    edit - sweet just ordered the farm from www.drinkstuff.com (direct link)

    I'm sure you could rig up a system to link some of these together with the aid of a dremel and some plastic tubing
